C                              D  
He saw Andy lying on the floor

In a puddle of blood, and he started to shake.

                  E  
so he fired a shot just to flag them down
     A                                                                                    B

They hung my brother before I could say

You see, little sister don't miss when she aims her gun
  A                                                                    B                                            E  
That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia
